Fixed point theorems for $\psi$-contractive mappings in ordered metric spaces. (English) Zbl 1235.54027
Summary: We obtain some new fixed point theorems for $\psi$-contractive mappings in ordered metric spaces. Our results generalize or improve many recent fixed point theorems in the literature (e.g., {\it J. Harjani}, {\it B. López} and {\it K. Sadarangani} [Abstr. Appl. Anal. 2010, Article ID 190701 (2010; Zbl 1203.54041); Comput. Math. Appl. 61, No. 4, 790--796 (2011; Zbl 1217.54046)]).
